Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 increases metastatic potential and aggressiveness in colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A1 (ALDH1A1) is a cancer stem cell marker in several malignancies. We established a novel epithelial cell line from rectal adenocarcinoma with unique overexpression of this enzyme. Genetic attenuation of ALDH1A1 led to increased invasive capacity and metastatic potential, the inhibition of proliferation activity, and ultimately ...

Stimulatory effect of icariin on the proliferation of neural stem cells from rat hippocampus

BMC Complementary and Alternative Medicine, 2018
Background Icariin (ICA), a major ingredient of Epimediumbrevicornum, has various pharmacological activities including central nervous system protective functions such as the improvement of learning and memory function in mice models of Alzheimer’s ...

Determining an efficient protocol for production of neural stem cells [PDF]

, 2005
only availableMouse embryonic stem (ES) cells are pluripotent cells derived from the inner cell mass of the developing blastocyst. When cultured in non-adherent dishes, ES cells form free-floating embryoid bodies (EBs).

RIPK4 function interferes with melanoma cell adhesion and metastasis

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
RIPK4 promotes melanoma growth and spread. RIPK4 levels increase as skin lesions progress to melanoma. CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated deletion of RIPK4 causes melanoma cells to form less compact spheroids, reduces their migratory and invasive abilities and limits tumour growth and dissemination in mouse models.

Efficient generation of neural stem cell-like cells from adult human bone marrow stromal cells [PDF]

, 2004
Clonogenic neural stem cells (NSCs) are self-renewing cells that maintain the capacity to differentiate into brain-specific cell types, and may also replace or repair diseased brain tissue. NSCs can be directly isolated from fetal or adult nervous tissue,

The Many Hats of Sonic Hedgehog Signaling in Nervous System Development and Disease. [PDF]

, 2016
Sonic hedgehog (Shh) signaling occurs concurrently with the many processes that constitute nervous system development. Although Shh is mostly known for its proliferative and morphogenic action through its effects on neural stem cells and progenitors, it ...

EDNRB‐dependent endothelin signaling reduces proliferation and promotes proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition in gliomas

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Glioma cells mainly express the endothelin receptor EDNRB, while EDNRA is restricted to a perivascular tumor subpopulation. Endothelin signaling reduces glioma cell proliferation while promoting migration and a proneural‐to‐mesenchymal transition associated with poor prognosis. This pathway activates Ca2+, K+, ERK, and STAT3 signalings and is regulated

Using Dental Pulp Stem Cells for Stroke Therapy

Frontiers in Neurology, 2019
Stroke is a leading cause of permanent disability world-wide, but aside from rehabilitation, there is currently no clinically-proven pharmaceutical or biological agent to improve neurological disability.

Regulation of neural stem cell proliferation and differentiation by Kinesin family member 2a. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2017
In the developing neocortex, cells in the ventricular/subventricular zone are largely multipotent neural stem cells and neural progenitor cells. These cells undergo self-renewal at the early stage of embryonic development to amplify the progenitor pool ...

SC1/PRDM4 recruits PRMT5 to control the timing of neural precursor differentiation in developing neural stem cells [PDF]

, 2010
During cortical development, neural stem cells (NSCs) switch from proliferative to neuron-generating asymmetric divisions. Here we investigated the role of Schwann cell factor 1 (SC1/PRDM4), a transcriptional repressor highly expressed in the developing ...
